I believe

I believe-
That we don't have to change friends
if we understand that friends change.

I believe-
That no matter how good a friend is,
they're going to hurt you every once in a while
and you must forgive them for that.

I believe-
That true friendship continues to grow,
even over the longest distance.
Same goes for true love.

I believe-
That you can do something in an instant
that will give you heartache for life.

I believe-
That it's taking me a long time
to become the person I want to be.

I believe-
That you should always leave loved ones with loving words.
It may be the last time you see them.

I believe-
That you can keep going
long after you can't.

I believe-
That we are responsible for what we do,
no matter how we feel.

I believe-
That either you control your attitude
or it controls you.

I believe-
That regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first,
the passion fades
and there had better besomething else to take its place.

I believe-
That heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done,
regardless of the consequences.

I believe-
That money is a lousy way of keeping score.

I believe-
That my best friend and I can do anything or nothing
and have the best time.

I believe-
That sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you're down,
will be the ones to help you get back up.

I believe-
That sometimes when I'm angry
I have the right to be angry,
but that doesn't give me the right to be cruel.

I believe-
That just because someone doesn't love you the way you want them to
doesn't mean they don't love you with all they have.

I believe-
That maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you've had
and what you've learned from them
and less to do with how many birthdays you've celebrated.

I believe-
That it isn't always enough to be forgiven by others.
Sometimes you have to learn to forgive yourself.

I believe-
That no matter how bad your heart is broken
the world doesn't stop for your grief.

I believe-
That our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are,
but we are responsible for who we become.

I believe-
That just because two people argue,
it doesn't mean they don't love each other.
And just because they don't argue,
it doesn't mean they do.

I believe-
That you shouldn't be so eager to find out a secret.
It could change your life forever.

I believe-
That two people can look at the exact same thing
and see something totally different.

I believe-
That your life can be changed in a matter of hours
by people who don't even know you.

I believe-
That even when you think you have no more to give,
when a friend cries out to you,
you will find the strength to help.

I believe-
That the people you care about most in life are taken
from you too soon.
